C Which planet is the most beautiful in our solar system? Many people may answer “Saturn”. Saturn is a funny-looking planet. It has beautiful rings. Of all the planets in the solar system, Saturn's rings are the biggest and brightest. According to scientists, however, these rings will one day disappear completely. How did Saturn get its rings in the first place? Science has no sure answer. But there is a popular theory: Some small planets ran into each other with Saturn's moons. Earth has only one moon. But Saturn has at least 60 moons. And this left behind a large amount of ice and rock pieces. These pieces are different in size. Some are as small as a grain of sand. Others are as large as a house. These small pieces began to travel around Saturn. Saturn’ s gravity (引力) pulled them toward it. At the same time, the speed of their orbit (轨道) tried to throw them into space. Over time, these pieces of ice and rock formed rings around Saturn. A new study, however, suggests that Saturn's gravity is winning. About ten tons of “ring matter” is falling into Saturn every second. If this continues, the planet's ring system will no longer exist in 100 million to 300 million years' time. According to scientists, Saturn's rings are between 10 million and 100 million years old. “We’ re lucky to be able to see Saturn's huge ring system.” one of the scientists said. “Some of the planets in our solar system only have very thin rings today. Perhaps we just missed seeing their huge ring systems!” 6. Why is Saturn the most beautiful? A. Because it has huge bright rings. B. Because it is shining most strongly. C. Because it is especially studied by scientists. D. Because it has the biggest size in the solar system. 7. What do the rings of Saturn consist of? A. Sand and rock. B. Small moons. C. Ice and rock. D. Small planets. 8. What does the underlined sentence mean? A. The gravity of Saturn is disappearing. B. The ring matter is being thrown into space. C. The speed of the ring matter is slowing down. D. The ring matter is gradually becoming part of Saturn. 9. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Every planet has a ring system. B. Some planets used to have huge rings. C. Saturn's rings are the oldest in the solar system. D. We can luckily see Saturn's ring system forever. 10. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To show how Saturn slowly formed. B. To tell what Saturn's rings are made up of. C. To describe how scientists study Saturn's rings. D. To explain why Saturn's rings are disappearing. D Tom left for school again after lunch and met Becky at the end of Meadow Lane. He ran up to her and said: “I acted very badly today, Becky. I'm sorry. Please let's be friends.” The girl stopped and looked at him. “Keep yourself to yourself, Thomas Sawyer. I' ll never speak to you again.” Becky wanted to see Tom get into trouble for the damaged spelling book. But soon Becky was going to be in trouble, too. The teacher, Mr Dobbins, wanted to be a doctor but he was too poor and he decided to become a schoolmaster, instead. Every day he took a mysterious book out of his desk and read it while the children were writing. He kept the book locked up in his desk. But the children were desperate to know what it was. As Becky was passing his desk she noticed the key in the lock. She opened the desk and took the book out. The title page— Professor somebody's Anatomy(解剖学)— didn't help. She soon found a beautiful coloured picture of a human figure. At that moment Tom came in. Becky moved the book away tearing the picture page down the middle. She put the book back into the desk, and started crying. “Tom Sawyer, you are a bad boy. You' re going to tell the teacher now, and I' ll get into trouble!” Becky ran out of the schoolhouse crying. Tom thought: “How strange girls are! Well, of course I'm not going to tell old Dobbins about this. Dobbins will ask first one child who tore his book and then another, and when he comes to the right girl he' ll know. You can always see it in girls’ faces.” —— Taken from The Adventures of Tom Sawyer 11. How did Becky feel when she met Tom? A. Nervous. B. Excited. C. Angry. D. Proud. 12.

In one of his poems, Tang Dynasty poet Du Mu once compared girls around the age of 13 to cardamom(豆蔻) flowers in the bud (含苞待放). Since then, doukou nianhua has been used to describe teen girls of this age. Ancient Chinese people liked to describe someone's age using titles(称谓), rather than the exact number. For example,chuitiao, meaning “straight hair”, meant a hairstyle that was popular for very young children in ancient China. It was used for children from 3 to 8 years old. Zongjiao, meaning “twisted horn”, was used to describe children from 9 to 14 years old. Back then, children would divide their hair into two halves and twist each half into a knot (结) on the top of their head, just like two horns. Shufa, meaning to tie one's hair up, was used for boys who had reached the age of 15. Boys would let down their “twisted horns” and tie up their hair in a bunch (一束) when they turned 15. Ruoguan, or “junior cap”, was used for young men in their twenties. These men would go to a hat-wearing ceremony when they turned 20 to show that they had become adults. The “year of independence” was when a man turned 30. At the age of 40, one “will not become puzzled”. When a man turned 50, he had reached the “year of understanding the mandate(命令) of heaven”, meaning to become aware of one's fate and no longer make any useless efforts. Finally, if you were lucky to live past one hundred years, really a long life, you would be titled qiyi (期颐). 16. At what age do children reach the stage described by chuitiao? A. 3 to 8 years old. B. 13 years old. C. 9 to 14 years old. D. 15 years old. 17. Which of the following titles is used to describe an adult? A. zongjiao. B. shufa. C. ruoguan D. chuitiao 18. What do the tiles chuitiao, zongjiao and shufa have in common(共同之处)? A. These titles are from poems. B. These titles are for adults. C. These titles are for children. D. These titles stand for long life. 19. What do the underlined word “independence” in the passage mean in Chinese? A.不惑 B.而立 C.知天命 D.期颐 20. What's the best title of the passage? A. Interesting ancient people. B. People of different ages hope for different things. C. Zongjiao, shufa, and ruoguan are titles for ancient people. D. Different titles in ancient times. 第二节(共 5 小题；每小题 2分，满分 10分) 阅读下面短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。每个选项仅使用一次. What Makes a Book a Classic?

When I was 8 years old, I saw Peking Opera actresses dancing and singing in a graceful way on television. I told my mom that I wanted to learn Peking Opera, and she put me in classes. Since then I' ve been on my learning journey for 5 years. I have to wake up at 6 o’ clock every morning to practice the key skills in Peking Opera performance, such as leg exercises, somersaults(翻筋斗), and voice training. When practicing handstands(倒立), all the weight is on my arms and I sweat. And to make my pronunciation more clear, I read the lines loudly and quickly. It makes my lips numb(麻木的), but I don’t give up. In practice, what really worries me is getting hurt. One time, I fell down while practicing. That made it difficult for me to go up and down stairs for a long time. As the saying goes, “One minute on the stage needs 10 years' practice off the stage.” All the hard work was worth it once I got the chance to perform Peking Opera on stage. This year, I performed a part from The Drunken Beauty during a show on CCTV. The charm of Peking Opera is timeless. I hope Peking Opera will be loved and enjoyed by more young people. 46.
